It anived a day late, but the black robe Michael L. Duffy got for Christ mas was worth the wail. Duffy, a deputy district attorney, was appointed Tuesday by Gov. George Deukmejian as the county's newest municipal rourtjudge. He fills the spot left vacant about six months ago when Judge Christopher G. Money was elevated to Superior Court Duffy, 42, is a Republican. He's been with the District Attorney's Office since 1981. He was understandably elated Tuesday. "You always hope and pray that something like this will happen," he said He said he regretted having to leave the District Attorney's Office, but said, "Opportunities to become a judge probably come along once in a lifetime." The prosecutor said he received word of the appointment to the $82,054 post at noon Tuesdav and promptly called his wife. The couple has seven children - including three foster children. Duffy has been a Pl'O:Seclltor for 14 years. Before corning to San Lws Obispo in 1981, he was a deputy ~bict attorney in Orange County for six years. Mer completing his bachelor's degree at the University of Nevada in 1971, Duffy became a deputy sherllI in Clark County, Nev. "Who would've thought that o years after testifying in court (as a deputy), I'd be sitting as a judge," he srud "It's really astounding." Duffy earned his law degree in 1974 from the Universi~of San Diego. Duffy's appom cnt met with a positive reaction. In the District Attorney's Offir.e, thinned out Tuesday by the holidays

Avdel(f. a former anta Ana police offi~er !'-nd district anorney m- ves11ga19r:, contended voters' ap- proval of Proposition 59 in 1987 indicated the district attorney should be elected. not appointed. A vdeef further s.11d government code mandates a vacancy should be filled by the chief tnal. deputy, cur- rently Ass1s1ant D1stnct Attorney James Enright, who has not an- nounced his candidacy. , But County Counsel Adnan Kuyper said state law provides the board of supcn-1sors appoint a suc- cessor in the case of a vacancy. The apJ101ntee must then sen'e until the nc~t general election. Kuyper said. Kuyper said the const1tut1onal amendment that provides for elec- llon of district attorneys doesn't preclude the board from filling a

Umhofer, the presiding municipal court judge, said Duffy's appointment will allow the court to continue functioning smooth- ly. ' The court is very happy that th governor has filled the vacancy" he said ' Umhofer said operating without a fifth judge has forced the municipal court to rely on the state Judicial ~ouncil to routinely assign visiting Judges to hear cases. The court has also had to rely on the assistance of Municipal Court Judge Edward Chidlaw, assigned to th_e ~aso Robles ~ranch, to help out With its caseload m San Luis Obispo he said. ' One of Duffy's greatest strengths as a prosecutor, said Umhofer, was that he did his homework. Please see Judge, B~ge

"Mike Cfipizzi is the chief deputy to the d1stnct attorney, and he certainly has helped the Orange County's dis- trict attomey's office gain a great reputation." "I think Mr. Avdeef ought to understand Mr. Capizzi is head and shoulders lhe most qualified for the POSllion," -- ~
